Still deciding?

The answers to what most artists ask before they buy.

Recorded. Every lesson is pre-recorded in professional studio quality, so you can watch anytime, pause, rewind and learn at your own pace. No fixed schedules.

And if we ever run a live class or session, you will be notified.

Yes. Your certificate becomes available in a dedicated section once you finish watching the course. Just download it and share it with clients and studios.

The Gold Certificate is an InkMentors incentive program. By showing that you are practicing the technique, sharing your progress, tagging us on Instagram at @inkmentors, and taking part in our VIP group, you may get the chance to receive an exclusive kit delivered to your home.

The Gold Certificate is not just a prominent, beautiful physical certificate. It also unlocks special benefits, such as presence at our booths during conventions, guest spots at our future studios in the US, gifts from our sponsors, and more.

Smooth Saturation 2.0 is priced at $350. You can split it into up to 4 installments with Klarna, where available.

Yes. Our goal is to spread as much knowledge as possible and build an army of elite artists around the world, so we made the commitment to absorb the taxes ourselves.

You only pay the course price, and in many countries you can still deduct it as a professional expense on your tax return.

Yes, and it always will be. When you buy the 2.0 update, the 1.0 version is included too, totaling more than 4.5 hours of content.

If you prefer, you can still buy the 1.0 version on its own for the promotional price of $150 to access the core ideas of the technique. Then, if you enjoy it and want to upgrade later, you will receive a coupon to upgrade by paying the remaining $200.

Right now we accept credit card, PayPal, Klarna (in some countries) and Apple Pay. Please check the terms of each platform in your country to confirm availability.

Yes. You get access to the VIP group, and our support email is always available.

Basically, it means respecting the artist's time. 🧘🏼

Our goal is to build an army of elite artists, so we will not overwhelm you with hours of filler where mentors tell long stories or speak slowly just to burn time and then justify the price with "this course has 5 hours" or something like that.

If you have watched our courses, you will notice there are no "umm" or "ahh" moments. Those sounds and idle pauses are cut. Every time we wipe the ink off the tattoo, we cut that part out, so you only see what actually matters to learn.

We also assume everyone already knows how to wipe ink and apply butter, so we avoid spending course time on those clips as much as possible.

That is it: respect your time, without compromising on knowledge.

Yes. Download the Teachable app, available on the Google Play Store and the App Store.

Then log in with the same email you used to buy the course on InkMentors, and you can watch the lessons on your phone or iPad, anywhere, whenever you want.
